Our Take

Genesis, the band that brought us Peter Gabriel's wild costumes and Phil Collins' even wilder drum fills, is back with a live recording of their legendary track "Supper's Ready" from 1973.

Recorded during their European tour, this album captures the essence of Genesis at the height of their prog-rock heyday. The band's intricate melodies and virtuosic musicianship are on full display, as they take listeners on a musical journey through mythological tales and apocalyptic visions.

From the haunting opening chords of "Lover's Leap" to the epic crescendo of "Apocalypse in 9/8," Genesis shows why they are considered one of the pioneering bands of the progressive rock genre. Guitarist Steve Hackett's intricate solos and keyboardist Tony Banks' mesmerizing textures create a sonic landscape that is both captivating and immersive.

Lead singer Peter Gabriel's theatrical vocals add a layer of drama and emotion to the music, drawing listeners into the fantastical world of the song. And let's not forget Phil Collins' impeccable drumming, driving the rhythm forward with precision and power.

Overall, "Supper's Ready - Live In Europe 1973" is a must-listen for any Genesis fan or prog-rock enthusiast. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let Genesis take you on a musical journey unlike any other. Cheers to a band that truly knows how to rock and roll, or should we say, prog and roll. Cheers, Genesis!

About the artist

Genesis

PROFILE: GENESIS Genesis, the legendary English rock band that emerged in the progressive rock era of the 1970s, has solidified their status as one of the most influential and innovative acts in music history. With a discography that spans over four decades, the band is known for their intricate and complex musical compositions, featuring elaborate arrangements and thought-provoking lyrics. Led by the incomparable Peter Gabriel in their early years, Genesis quickly established themselves as pioneers of the prog-rock movement with albums like "Foxtrot" and "Selling England by the Pound." Gabriel's theatrical stage presence and distinctive vocal style set them apart from their peers, earning them a dedicated fanbase and critical acclaim. After Gabriel's departure, drummer Phil Collins took over as lead vocalist, steering the band towards a more commercial sound. Hits like "Invisible Touch" and "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" dominated the charts, showcasing Collins' soulful voice and the band's knack for crafting catchy pop hooks. Despite lineup changes and musical evolutions, Genesis has remained a powerhouse in the music industry, selling out stadiums and inspiring countless artists along the way. Their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010 cemented their legacy as one of the greatest bands of all time. Whether you're a die-hard prog-rock aficionado or a casual listener looking for some classic rock vibes, Genesis has something for everyone. So crank up the volume, sit back, and let the timeless sounds of Genesis transport you to a world of musical bliss.
